Hi Laurent
My adapter is: Iomega Jaz jet ultra pci ver.2.7
My drive is: Fujitsu M2263SA, Part no: B03B-4945-B613A#NB.
On my computer I can format the HD and transfer windows files back and forth without any problems.
Laurent, what will you do if/when your drives quits? Are you on OS6.03 too?
In my case, my CMI III is dead if my internal HD quits and that is what I'm trying to avoid by struggeling to make backups. But it doesn't go to well at the moment :-|
If anyone has anything to add concerning how to format an external HD with a CMI III OS6.03 I'm all ears.
Best regards
Brian

Hi Brian,
I'm sorry I don't have the utils to format HDs with my rev6.03 ...
However, I'm surprised you're able to use these HD with a
computer... I tryed to connect mine (Maxtor XT1140) to
my computers and had some SCSI bus errors... What models
do you have ? Which model of Adaptec converter board do
you use ?
Best regards.
Laurent.
